He is very lighthearted and aims to have his students succeed and understand the material. Very accommodating and engaging lectures. The projects were fun and interactive

Such a sweet and understanding professor. The class was very manageable and the work was not graded too hard. The material itself was also very interesting. This class was just such a breathe of fresh air and the prof was so lovely.

He is the best professor I've ever had at UCSB so far. He's very kind and caring and really did his best to help every student to do well in his class. The extra credit opportunity helped a lot. Sometimes the lectures could be a little boring but this class never made me feel exhausted or anxious like some of my other classes did.

Super easy! Only went to class once after midterm and still got an A. For midterm and final papers, you get like 8 choices to write on so you're bound to know at least one! Only used the book a little for papers... Definitely take a class with him!!
